Art vs. Blog...let's see, I need to update my blog and I must confess that I prefer to create over spending time on the computer. Anyway, back in March, I created my own dread locks. Once you've lost your hair to chemo - your attitude toward hair, style, color, wigs, scarfs, and hats change. I have been cancer free now for 2 years. Big Yea! My new crop of hair has finally reached a point where I am pleased with it most days. I will never have the thick hair of my youth again - thus I know natural dreads are beyond my scope. But I like my artificial dreads (by way of big yarn, little bump, stocked by Steven Be). Regardless of the color of my natural hair, my hair complements my dreads. Like real hair - they can get warm! I am thinking about entering the project in a design competition late summer.
